she felt his passive moral authority which

tranquil, yet deep nature, where love

They passed the skulking letters over
to the only person in the world who

Mark read poorly, physical education
and not the spelling-book being his bias.
He was of warm blue eyes and soft red
complexion, and made of tendons and
small joints, and cool as such impetuous
men ever are who subdue themselves by
exposure and sporting society
His cheek sparkled once or twice, and
then tanned its crimson down. Finally
he assorted the letters and put them
together and touched them to his nose

dogs, chickens and rabbit traps, and also
over his neglected opportunities of school

THE PALLIUM.

Originally a Mantle, But Now Simply a
BOrder-How 1T is Made.
The Pope has blessed the pallium sent to
Monsignor Richard, Archbishop of Paris,
and which is the insignia of his clerical ele-
walton. The pallium was originally mantle
thrown over the other garments, but is now
only the border of it, sort Of very open
collar resting on the shoulders, and consist
ing of strip of white wooden material
marked with black crosses, forming two short
ends, one on the back and one on the breast.
The wool of which it is made is from its
origin consecrated to pontifical benediction.
1t comes from two lambs annually presented
to the Pope on the 21st of January
in an ornamented basket, blessed By him,
and then intrusted to the nuns of st. Agnes,
who rear them, and from their fleece weave
the palliun1s. Before the vestment is given

A Sweet swindler.

WIN. c. Hickman, originally Of
Philadelphia, but lately of Boston, has
joined the American colony in Canada,
he having, it is alleged, swindled a
number Of Boston capitalists out of be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000. Hick-
man claimed to have a formula for
manufacturing an article called sugarine
out of common starch. The sugarine
was to take the place of ordinary sugar,
to which it was equal in oil respects.
According to Hickman's story, sugarine
could be made for Ia cents per
pound and sold readily for S Ia cents.
Several capitalists became interested
and furnished considerable sums Of
money, which, it is SAID, Hickman per
verted to his own use, and when he
found he could no longer blindfold hi:

Gold in South Africa.

A Washington despatch OF March
9th says: Vice. Consul Knight reports
to the Department Of State concerning
the Transvaal gold fields, that the won
derful Shelba reef has been eclipsed by
another reef, discovered last summer
and known as Thomas reef, from which
samples of quartz weighing 5000
pounds, it is claimed, yielded r4S
ounces of gold. These discoveries
naturally gave an impetus to prospect
ing on a large scale, resulting in the
discovery of marvelously extensive and
rich gold suartz veins The Vice-Con-
sui says he believes that after making
inquiries and on the best information
obtainable, the Transvaal fields, when
fully developed, will prove among the
richest in the world Recent discove'
ries have naturally given rise to no end
of speculation and mining ventures,
and great rush Of capitalists, miners
and adventures has set in for The field.
Near Shelba reef a city called Barber
ton has sprung up as if by magic,
numbering already 1000 to 5000
people, and the inhabitants are rapidly
increasing. The report concludes by
cautioning people without means not
to venture into the gold country unless
they be thoroughly practical miners, as
the conditions existing are very hard,
and many will be doomed to bitter dis
appointment
